Artist Profile

Kousuke Watanabe

Talent, actor, illustrator, lyricist, composer born December 26, 1975, from Aomori Japan. When I was in college,I learned music by myself while studying acting at an actor training school. After graduating from university, I got a job as a stage lighting staff dedicated to the nationwide performance of enka singer Hiroko Tsugaru, who was also from Aomori Prefecture. Since I was interested in the performing arts, I was given the opportunity to experience the MC of performances, the opening act (comedy, etc.) while working on the stage lighting, and sometimes present the songs I composed. After that, he left music and established JATPA ENTERTAINMEMT, which is his current private office. At the same time, from the experience of traveling around the country with "Hiroko Tsugaru", he started a dialect instruction business and sometimes entered the shooting site as a dialect instructor. Currently, he is promoting the "Namanego Project" (http://dialect.jp/), a project to use and pass down correct dialects, mainly on YouTube, and is working to save Tsugaru dialect and other dialects nationwide from the danger of extinction. ing. Considering his age and his current social situation, he felt that the time had finally come to release the songs he had made long ago, so he resumed his music activities.
